After reading most of the posts here, there’s a few things I’d like to say.

1) I absolutely love this match-up. There’s so much action everywhere and I honestly don’t know what to do because there’s so many things to do that I’m spoilt for choice! It’s been fun playing in WvW this week and I’m putting in extra hours to it.

2) However, after many battles, solo against groups of YB and CD, I think YB people tend to carry themselves better. They don’t gloat like CD players do which started to irritate me. I started to leave YB people alone and focus on CD players. Even in a 3-way fight, it has become a habit for me to kill off CD first. It is just that the players I’ve come across from CD don’t act honorably.

3) CD people need to stop spamming whispers when they get wiped… It is really annoying. Just because a thief clears the CD jp campers solo doesn’t mean you need to spam him for griefing a puzzle when you guys were clearly the ones… I had to fight off a mortar spamming the entrance…

4) Numbers wise, so far, I’ve only had queue times when the match-up just started. Every other time, I’ve entered the BGs immediately and even had outmanned buff a few times. So I don’t think it is a valid criticism that TC only has mindless zergs. My guild also prefers to operate separately from the zergs anw. I’ve also noticed that there are a few WvW guilds from CD, I think they were HAX and EDMW? Can’t remember the rest.

Night Capping and YOU

Hmm… I wonder if they ever realised that all players play during different timezones. I’m in Australia but I play during the wee hours which happens to be primetime for my server TC. In last week’s matchup, BG had a superior force compared to ours in the “primetime” (my night) while we had a superior force during their night. We’d regain some land during that time but once the main BG came back on, we’d lose all ground again. Nightcapping, daycapping, they’re all the same.

TC had a good run the other day trying to claim back the keeps and we did for a good solid 2 hours until a BG zerg started to take out us using what I’d describe as clever organised tactics. I wouldnt say we were outnumbered. Looked pretty much even. Simply put, we were outplayed at that point. WvW is a war and is about tactics. Use them rather than complain about having a weaker force at night. You sleep 8 hours a day just like the other players across the world do. What you do with your time is probably the same as what they do with theirs.

It sucks to be on the losing end but if you can’t accept losing once in a while, you should really look at yourself. No one can win everything all the time. You win some, you lose some. I’d say TC is quite a good server. We got absolutely kitten by BG’s score last week but we’re already in a good leading position for this week’s matchup. When you lose, work hard to win next week. Don’t whine now…

And just to add, I absolutely enjoyed fighting BG last week. It was tough but it made winning that much more exciting for me. Different scenario to the start of this week’s matchup, we pretty much wiped out FA and DB after our forces started to gather and it wasn’t without resistance either.

I think every server has a healthy population of oceanic players. If not, please tell me the server with the least of them so I can actually have a window of opportunity to farm Cursed Shore without a zerg size of people.
